A Little Fun - Rebel Yell

[veatch]

Used to have a good setup for recording - scrubbed it and sold it (mostly) all off about 10 or 12 years ago.  Found out that I still had active licenses on the software, and you don't need a monster system to do this stuff anymore.  My meager Mac Mini is enough...  

So...

Quick take - got the drums, bass, and vocals from Moises.  Everything else is guitars - two continuous takes for left and right (not first takes, but continuous - intent was to be what would this sound like live in the band). Solo was a separate take.  A lot that I hate, but I will say - mixing with today's tools is a sh*t-ton easier than it used to be : )

I'll take any feedback on what can be better.

Signal path is stoopid simple: Sennheiser 609 to an SSL 2 into Logic.  Everything else is plugins.

Sounded great, Jeff. Needs some Live at Budokan style, Little Japanese Girl Screaming, mixed in to make it.

I'll see if I have an LJGS plug in...

Cool!

Does Moises allow you to change pitch?

[Dave Scepter]

In the midnight hour, she cried MOE MOE MOE 🤣

Yes. Pitch change,  tempo change without changing pitch. Useful practice tool.

Sounds great. I kind of miss the low string, pinch-harmonic chirps though. They give the backing tracks an aggressive character. Well done!

[veatch]

I think they're in there, just buried in the mix. That's one of the things I wasn't happy with is losing the left channel guitar as much as I did.

Thanks for the feedback!

Well done!  I dig it.

What were you playing for that track?

[veatch]

Shishkov #0053. I may retrack some of this with #0100 and the maple Cali.
